• An unforgettable memory from his first deployment that signaled a change in his service
• The day he was hit by an IED
• His struggles with purpose and suicide during his recovery
• Why he scales the highest peaks on the planet
• What he sees in his future
• His message for all veterans as they strive to find their purpose after service
